    Grizzly man

    She was with him for three years --that trip was not her first trip into grizzly country with him. do you have any evidence that he forced her to go on that fatal trip. You have inferred and accused First Nation Families in the past, so your comment above does not surprise me. However even in...

    Grizzly man

    either way, it has served its purpose when teaching people to always prepare for the worst when in bear country.

    Grizzly man

    IMHO---everybody should carry it with them when in bear country, even if there has been cases when it was ineffective, as well as a firearm.

    Grizzly man

    we have used the video and audio to teach, what not to do, as we have both brown and white bears visit us in town at times. I am always sorry that someone is killed but before we blame him for her death lets at least acknowledge that she was 40 years old and a P.A. She was not dumb, young, or...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Funny how this thread turned to a topic that is currently being discussed in this neck of the woods. Is it better to have a young Prime Minister or an older one ? And one of the topics that came up is "vitality" of the younger man, or woman. We have had a least 10 "published " sex scandals...

    Fatal grizzly encounter

    You bring up a good point. Without a doubt my first thought was sorrow for the family, which is always my first thought when tragedy strikes. But if the tragedy possibly could have been avoided if certain precautions had been adhered to, then we do use the tragedy to teach both children and...

    Ukraine / Russia

    makes sense. Also, I noticed that Finland as of, I think, today has cancelled all train service (passenger and cargo ) into Russia and Ukraine. And, question for anyone--would NATO do more for Finland, than they are for Ukraine, if Russia did attack them ? I dont see that happening...

    Fatal grizzly encounter

    I agree. We supposedly have approx 6500 Grizzlies. The number of DLP kills are not included in the harvested number (tags) so the exact number of grizzly kills per year is not known. However , the total number of bears have been fairly consistent for a couple of decades. After Valerie and...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Thank you. Appreciated. Remember I am still working toward going on a Capercaillie hunt and although I am sure the hunt will happen in Sweden, we did investigate hunts in Finland. A little off topic but after inquiring about the hunt in Finland we got an unsolicited response from a Russian...

    Ukraine / Russia

    Thank you, both for your original correction and this one. I went back just now and edited my original post--probably should just delete it, but I was hoping someone would see it and give me their thoughts about Finland and whether anyone thinks they will join Nato. I am reluctant to make any...

    Ukraine / Russia

    We ( Canada ) have sent nearly one billion dollars to Ukraine since 2014 and now we have decided to "loan" them another 500 million. Does anybody keep track of where this money goes ? Does any of it end up in personal bank accounts. We had a discussion this morning ( not here ) about the...

    Women in the outdoors

    I have hunted alone in extreme conditions for years and I agree with the above, on both of his points

    1 horn sheep?

    We do not have Big Horn Sheep, only Dall and Stone. First Nation people have no problem harvesting one with a broken horn, as we use the hide and meat, not the horns. However I can not imagine this being true for someone who paid full price to hunt them, but, these are tough hunts in beautiful...

    Just put in for big game combos

    sorry about that. I also was not referring to anyone and I have not been to Africa, but if the stars all lined up correctly I would not turn a trip to Africa down. But I understand your point and apologize for my post. I appreciated your first post, before you edited it, thank you. However...

    Friday Music - The all Europe channel

    :ROFLMAO: gives everyone an extra day to enjoy the music you men post. As to April, the song she told me to listen to one time when I was whining about something was " live like you were about to die" or something like that and I forgot who sang it, but the guy was dying so he started...

    Just put in for big game combos

    It speaks for itself, for you, but I am not sure "everyone" would have the same feelings about "the hunt they prefer" Doesn't this fall into the " one woman's nightmare is another woman's dream" analogy. Or each person have different dreams, different reactions, and prefer different hunts and...

    How To Pick Up A Porcupine

    yes. Besides what has already been mentioned, they are also used on moccasins, and earrings. My favorite Porcupine is one from the Porcupine Caribou herd.

    What is the most bears you have seen in 1 night?

    I would have to say the Ice Bears ( Grizzly with ice on them ) at Cave Man every October. Probably 30 to 40. Sometimes we are visited in town by 3 to 6 white bears, which can sober you up quick, if walking home from the tavern ;)
